Foreword
King Indradyumna was a great devotee of Lord Vishnu and was eager to meet him face to face. Once a brahman came to the place of the king indtradyumna and told him about an incranatoin of Lord Vishnu named Nila Madhava. The king then sent different brahmanas out to the search for Lord Nila Madhava. They all returned unsuccessful except a priest named Vidyapati.After travelling for a while Vidyapati came to an area inhabited by non-Aryans called sabaras. He stayed at the house of local chief , called Viswavasu. When he arrived Viswavasu was not there, but his daughter Lalita was. Vidyapati stayed there for some time and eventually marraied Lalita, the daughter of the Sabara. Vidyapti noticed some peculiar behaviour of host. Viswavasu would go to everyday around noon and would return back to the house scented with fragrances of sandalwood, camphor and musk. Vidyapati asked his wife about this and she informed him that his father would go daily to worship Nila Madhava.Lalita had been told by her father not to tell anyone about Nila Madhava , but she had overstepped that order by telling her husband .
